Enfin, après une longue attente, Beyond Bilal: Black History in Islam est désormais disponible en français ! Trop longtemps, la discussion autour de la présence et de la contribution des Noirs dans l’islam a été limitée à Bilal et à un ou deux individus après lui. Mustafa Briggs cherche cependant à mettre en lumière l’héritage noir plus large et souvent négligé au sein de l’islam à travers sa série de conférences pionnières, désormais disponible sous forme de livre complet. Ce livre explore la relation profondément enracinée entre l’islam et l’histoire noire, mettant en avant les prophètes noirs, les figures proéminentes du Coran, et les Sahaba noirs et les érudits des premières générations moins connus. L’ouvrage plonge dans la riche histoire de l’islam en Afrique et son influence érudite, retraçant l’expansion de la religion et son héritage en Afrique de l’Ouest et à travers la diaspora en Amérique du Nord et du Sud. Le travail de Briggs comprend également ses autres conférences acclamées, Avant Malcolm X : Histoire de l’islam dans les Amériques, qui examine la présence de l’islam dans les Amériques avant le 20e siècle, et Les Filles de Fatima : Érudition féminine dans la tradition islamique, qui met en avant le rôle pivot des femmes dans l’érudition islamique. Ayant captivé des audiences d’Oxford à Harvard, ce livre novateur apporte l’exploration perspicace de Briggs sur l’intersection de l’Histoire Noire et de l’islam directement sur votre étagère pour la première fois.
An @imamomarsuleiman appreciation post In this day and age where many people, especially youth, have lost faith in the leadership and scholarship of the community, it’s refreshing to see someone who is as genuine and sincere in real life as they are on screen and on the pulpit. Someone who has sacrificed his youth in support of the deen, and in standing for justice, and in representing Islam in a way that is relevant and relatable for the modern age, and has inspired millions of others in the process. Someone who I am blessed to call a big brother and a friend, who was the first person to welcome me in Dallas and always makes me feel at home whenever I return. Thank you for being a gem in the community, and for being a welcoming host, and most importantly; thank you for being you 🤍
It’s been over half a decade since I first gave the Beyond Bilal lecture, and exactly one year since I published the book, and now thousands of you have shown support and helped make it an Amazon 1# Best Seller ! This book is more than just a publication to me, I feel as though it is the fruit of many years of my own personal journey, and the result of thousands of positive interactions I have had all over the world, learning, sharing, and teaching the information contained in this book. It is the result of the requests and demands of the hundreds of people who I’ve met over the years while presenting Beyond Bilal, who either requested the presentation, or attended it and benefited from some part of the information contained within it. I hope this book does what many personally confessed the presentation did for them—help them to better understand themselves or their brothers and sisters in faith and humanity and unpack some of the biases or stereotypes they grew up with or found within themselves or their communities. Most importantly, this is a labour of love. This book was produced without any sophisticated marketing plan, or significant budget, and with the help and support of a few loving and dedicated individuals, who volunteered their time and effort editing, designing, typesetting, coordinating, and supporting me turning Beyond Bilal into the book you see today, all in order to meet the demands of the hundreds of people who requested a physical copy of the presentation. This book would not be here without the love and support of each and every single one of you, and I am eternally grateful to everybody who has influenced, encouraged, and supported me from the beginning of my journey until this point, and to The One who created, originated, and coordinated all of this, and who is our final aim and destination. All praise and glory are due to Him, and I am eternally grateful for His all-encompassing mercy and grace.
Are we traders with God? A beautiful reflection and an insight in to a Hadith in which Shaykh @mustafabriggs explains the companions who asked the Prophet ﷺ why he prays the long hours of the night when he has already been forgiven. Do we really pray because Allah should be worshipped or because we want something in return! #islamicreminder #islam #prophetmuhammadﷺ #revivalretreats #allah

The House of Allah ﷻ, built by Prophet Ibrahim (AS) and his son Prophet Isma’il (AS). The land where the well of Zamzam was gifted to Hajar (AS). The city where our beloved Nabi ﷺ was born. A sacred and blessed place where our forefathers and foremothers worshipped Allah ﷻ—a ritual we continue to this day. Alhamdulillah for this journey. Alhamdulillah for this invitation. May Allah ﷻ invite us all back, time and time again, and reunite us in the gardens of Firdaws.
In the city of the Beloved ﷺ with my siblings & 💚. What a surreal dream come true – to visit the most honored city in the world to visit the most honored creation in the world. 🥹
A beautiful account explained by Shaykh @mustafabriggs of how our Beloved, the Prophet ﷺ was offered the wealth of this world and refused because of the way he ﷺ chose to live his blessed life, this was part of an insightful class that was taken under the beautiful night sky of the Sahara Desert in Morocco. You can watch the full video as part of Qasida Burda series on YouTube 💚 #islamicreminders #islam #muslim #prophetmuhammadﷺ #revivalretreats
أَيَا رَبِّ يَا مَنْ جُنْدُهُ الدَّهْرَ غَالِبٌ وَلَوْ ضَعُفَتْ آرَاؤُهُمْ يَا مُؤَمَّــــــلاَ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ وَالشُّكْرُ الْمُسَرْمَدُ دَائِمًا فَلَمْ يَخْشَ مَنْ يَلْجَـا إِلَيكَ تَوَكُّـــلاَ

💻 Todays Office… I know many of you know me for Beyond Bilal: Black History in Islam, but for the past two years, I’ve been working on a project that’s both deeply personal and thought-provoking: Islam and the Making of the Modern World. 🌍✨ This book is a collection of essays and personal anecdotes where I uncover and explore some of the most fascinating and mind-blowing connections in history—like how Islamophobia helped lay the foundations for colonization and the transatlantic slave trade, The Roman Empires relationship with the Muslim World, or how the Crusades shaped modern geopolitics. Alhamdulillah, we’re in the final stages of editing, and I’m hoping to release it before the end of the year, insha’Allah! I had the chance to share some of these insights recently on @ansaripodcast, but stay tuned for more updates. Your support and duas mean everything as we get closer to the finish line. I can’t wait to share this with you all! 🙏🏾
